The word “ substitution " means that to use something new or different instead of something else. Also, it can use in math,too. For example,
I have two slope intercept form

y-2x=6

-y-4x=24

Now, we just need to substitute the two of them to find x and y

-y-4x=24
+
y-2x=6
=
-6x=30
x=-5
Then, replace variable if x in one of them to find y

y-2x=6
y-2(-5)=6
y+10=6
y=6-10
y=-4. Hope it help!

Melisande collected 14 bottles on Saturday and 9 bottles on Sunday for recycling. On Monday, she took all the bottles to the rec
Ann [662]

Answer:

Option B is correct that is  amount she is getting per bottle is $0.15  

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the information that melisande collected 14 bottles on saturday and 9 bottles on sunday

That means she has collected total of 23 bottles

Let us assume that the amount she is paid for recycling is $b

Since, she is left with $3.20 after the amount she gets for bottles we will get the equation below:

23b=3.20

Now, since she has to pay one time service fee equation will become

23b -0.25 =3.20

After simplification we will  get

23b=3.20+0.25=3.45

b=3.45/23=.15

b=$0.15

Therefore, The amount she is getting per bottle is $0.15

Exercise 11.21) Many smartphones, especially those of the LTE-enabled persuasion, have earned a bad rap for exceptionally bad ba
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The researcher suspects that the battery life between charges for the Motorola Droid Razr Max differs if its primary use is talking or if its primary use is for internet applications.

Since the means for talk time usage (20hs) is greater than the mean for internet usage (7hs) the main question is if the variance in hours of usage is also greater when the primary use is talk time.

Be:

X₁: Battery duration between charges when the primary usage of the phone is talking. (hs)

n₁= 12

X[bar]₁= 20.50 hs

S₁²= 199.76hs² (S₁= 14.13hs)

X₂: Battery duration between charges when the primary usage of the phone is internet applications.

n₂= 10

X[bar]₂= 8.50

S₂²= 33.29hs² (S₂= 5.77hs)

Assuming that both variables have a normal distribution X₁~N(μ₁;σ₁²) and X₂~N(μ₂; σ₂²)

The parameters of interest are σ₁² and σ₂²

a) They want to test if the population variance of the duration time of the battery when the primary usage is for talking is greater than the population variance of the duration time of the battery when the primary usage is for internet applications. Symbolically: σ₁² > σ₂² or since the test to do is a variance ratio: σ₁²/σ₂² > 1

The hypotheses are:

H₀: σ₁²/σ₂² ≤ 1

H₁: σ₁²/σ₂² > 1

There is no level of significance listed so I've chosen α: 0.05

b) I've already calculated the sample standard deviations using a software, just in case I'll show you how to calculate them by hand:

S²= \frac{1}{n-1}*[∑X²-(∑X)²/n]

For the first sample:

n₁= 12; ∑X₁= 246; ∑X₁²= 7240.36

S₁²= \frac{1}{11}*[7240.36-(246)²/12]= 199.76hs²

S₁=√S₁²=√199.76= 14.1336 ≅ 14.13hs

For the second sample:

n₂= 10; ∑X₂= 85; ∑X₂²= 1022.12

S₂²= \frac{1}{9}*[1022.12-(85)²/10]= 33.2911hs²

S₂=√S₂²=√33.2911= 5.7698 ≅ 5.77hs

c)

For this hypothesis test, the statistic to use is a Snedecors F:

F= \frac{S_1^2}{S_2^2} *\frac{Sigma_1^2}{Sigma_2^2} ~~F_{n_1-1;n_2-1}

This test is one-tailed right, wich means that you'll reject the null hypothesis to big values of F:

F_{n_1-1;n_2-1; 1-\alpha }= F_{11;9;0.95}= 3.10

The rejection region is then F ≥ 3.10

F_{H_0}= \frac{199.76}{33.29} * 1= 6.0006

p-value: 0.006

Considering that the p-value is less than the level of significance, the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

Then at a 5% level, there is significant evidence to conclude that the population variance of the duration time of the batteries of Motorola Droid Razr Max smartphones used primary for talk is greater than the population variance of the duration time of the batteries of Motorola Droid Razr Max smartphones used primary for internet applications.

I hope this helps!

Help asap pls -=-=-=-=--------------
bixtya [17]

Answer:

-1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

at x=0 y= 5

at x=3 y= 4

y=ax+b

b= 5

4=3x+5

3x= -1

x= -1/3

y =  -  \frac{x}{3}  + 5

On a beach trip, Lucy rents a bike from “Wheels by the Waves”, where they rent bikes for $12 plus $3 per hour. If Lucy spent $30
Paul [167]

Answer: 6 hours

Step-by-step explanation: If you write an equation for this scenario it would be y = 12+3x. 12 is the starting value and x represents how many hours the bike is rented, therefore 3 dollars would be added to the initial 12 each hour. So if Lucy spent $30 then it would change to 30= 12+3x. Now you essentially just need to work backwards. Rearrange the equation and move 12 to the left of the equal sign to make 30-12=3x. Combine vairable to make 18=3x. Divide 3x by 3 to isolate x and divide 18 by 3 as well to make it even. This looks like 18/3=3x/3. Meaning it would end up as 6=x.
